A STORY OLA SNAKE AND A PIG.
Jasper Bryan, living out on the
river, east of town, relates a remark
able incident between a pig of his
and a rattlesnake. A fine SOW and
pigs used to 60 in the river swamp,
and frequently the SOW would ap.
pear for her slops with one pig short
which so worried friend Bryan. that
he mustered his forces and went in
search of the cause of the absence
of the pigs. He had not been in
the swamp long before he was start
led by the peculiar sound of the rat
ties, and upon investigation found
that a snake had swallowed a pig,
but the little grunter, not being sat
isfied with the confinement, had
actually kicked his feet through the
belly of the snake and was walking
about trying to find his way out of
the woods, and its head still enclos-
ed IN the lower part of the snakes
body. The snake was promptly killed
and found to contain sixteen rattles.
The pig was carried home and is do.

Upon this immense machine the
skilled operator in my presence saw.

legs and backs, but so small that the
four were placed ON the end Of a
led pencil at one time. Then a
dozen knives and forks of the most
deminutive size were made and plac.
ed around the lead pencil. So small
were they that although the entire
dozen were placed round the pencil
not one Of them touched the other.
Then the operator trimmed his finger
nails on the huge saw as cleverly
and esaily as one could do it with a
penknife. Wetting his thumb he
pressed the ball of it into some saw
dust and then sawed the sawdust off
the thumb without scratching the
skin, yet single nervous twitch of
the arm would have cost him q hand.

The Romney Intelligencer contains
the following: "Mr. Hol. Williams
and his brother have received such
encouragement from the assay of
some gold-bearing quartz sent to
Philadelphia for examination from
their farm near Ice Mountain, in
this county, as to justify them in
sinking a shaft on the place, which
they are now doing. We trust their
dream of a new lei Dorado may be

OUT OF JAIL In A JIFFY.

WOODSTOCK, VA, August 3D.
United States Senator Riddleberger
was yesterday sentenced by Judge
Newman, of the County Court, to
payla fine Of s25 and be imprisoned
for five days for contempt of court.
He was released from Jail last night
by q. mob. The iailer made but
slight resistance. T 5
The circumstances leading up to
the arrest Of Senator Riddleberger
are related as follows by an eye wit
ness: On Thursday w. w. Jones
was tried for larceny, and the jury
found that he was insane. Jones
was q client of Senator Riddlebcr-
gers, and the virdict made the Sen
ator angry. BE was accused of
writing a placard and giving a boy
two dollars to haul Jones mp and
down the town, the latter displaying
the placard meanwhile, which had
written on it:
Verdict-Bill Jones not guilty
but insane, jury insane, lawyers in
sane, court insane in the MAN,"
The noise occasioned by this dis
play disturbed the proceedings of
the court then in session, and the
commemorative attorney, j. G.
Baker, had the judge Issue an order
for Senator Riddleberger to appear
before Judge New nan to show
cause why he Riddleberger) should
not be fined and imprisoned for-ridi-
culing the judge and jury and dis
turblng the court. At FIVE o'clock
Senator Riddleberger appeared be-
fore the court and defended himself.
He said that Judge Newman had
no Jurisdiction in the case, which the
Judge denied and asked Senator
Riddleberger to sit down until the
evidence could be taken to prove
that he (the Senator) was the one
who instigated the ridicule, and then
he said the court would hear argu-
ment. Senator Riddleberger would
not sit down and the court fined
him S25. He then defied the court
and said:
"This court shall not send me to
jail"
Judge Newman then told the
sheriff to take the Senator to jail for
five days. Senator Riddleberger
said he would like to see the man
who could take him to Jail, and
Sheriff Whitman at once arrested
the Senator and locked him up
This action caused much excitement,
and this morning at two o'clock a
mob of one hundred men, supposed
to be from Edinburg, in this
county, scaled the walls Of the Jail
yard and took the Senator out on
ladders.

WHY SHOULD YOU FANCY 7

Oh. why should you fancy the "rose-
chain of Love .,ss.
Round thy neck, in my fondness, l
threw?
Let us meet, though it be but for once in
this life,
And the fancy itself shall be true.
Then the thrill which steals forth from
the theme of my lips,
If it floods with bliss thy pure breast,
Shall leave me to ask for no heaven be-
yond-
In thy love will this proud spirit rest.
IT'S pleasant to dream in the castles of
air
Which rise like bright stars through a
cloud,
OF the friends we would choose to COM
mune with our souls
In the hours which the twilight be-
slowed.
But why should we dream of the skies
ever bright,
And only a moment dwell there,
When the real is ours in a word, if we
will,
And the dream may be lasting as fair ?

senses pail
oh, the ,inklc, tankle, tinkle, oh, the
chinkle, chankle, chlnkle,
Like the tapping Of the laughing waves
upon golden shore,
Like q dream Of fern and ,grotto-I shall
buy temperance motto
And hang It high and dry above my hotel
chamber door!
Still marching, marching, marching, my
throat and lips are parching-
He pauses-oh, sweet minister oh, angel
straight from heaveui
turn the knob 10 rapture-my hands reach
out to capture
The pitcher-but It's gone -incarnate
fend--to number seveI.
